Fall has Arrived

The trees are turning and the leaves are falling.  The smell of bon fire’s travel through the air.  I love fall!  Don’t let my love of fall fool you for the love of winter, I have NO love for winter. Last Sunday we went to Eckert's farm in Grafton IL.  We had so much fun.  Brian, Lauryn, Mason, Molly, Jeff, Renae and I packed up the car and headed out.  We rode the ferry across to Grafton, mason loved it.  What a great place Eckert's is, I had never been there before.  We took a hayride to the apple orchards.  The tractor would drop you off at the specific type of apples you wanted to pick.  That part was really fun for the kids, we all enjoyed a apple out in the orchard, even Lauryn.  hen we picked pumpkins,we each got our own.  Every year we all carve pumpkins together. it’s so much fun. They also had rides for the kids and even a petting zoo. Fun was had by all, especially later that night when we all enjoyed some apple pie.
